Skip to comments.Dinosaurs, humans coexist in U.S. creation museum
Posted on 01/14/2007 5:31:07 PM PST by Tim Long
PETERSBURG, Kentucky - Ken Ham's sprawling creation museum isn't even open yet, but an expansion is already underway in the state-of-the art lobby, where grunting dinosaurs and animatronic humans coexist in a Biblical paradise.
A crush of media attention and packed preview sessions have convinced Ham that nearly half a million people a year will come to Kentucky to see his Biblically correct version of history.
"I think we'll be surprised at how many people come," Ham said as he dodged dozens of designers working to finish exhibits in time for the May 28 opening.
The $27 million project, which also includes a planetarium, a special-effects theater, nature trails and a small lake, is privately funded by people who believe the Bible's first book, Genesis, is literally true.
For them, a museum showing Christian schoolchildren and skeptics alike how the earth, animals, dinosaurs and humans were created in a six-day period about 6,000 years ago -- not over millions of years, as evolutionary science says -- is long overdue.
While foreign media and science critics have mostly come to snigger at exhibits explaining how baby dinosaurs fit on Noah's Ark and Cain married his sister to people the earth, museum spokesman and vice-president Mark Looy said the coverage has done nothing but drum up more interest.
"Mocking publicity is free publicity," Looy said. Besides, U.S. media have been more respectful, mindful perhaps of a 2006 Gallup Poll showing almost half of Americans believe that humans did not evolve, but were created by God in their present form within the last 10,000 years.
Looy said supporters of the museum include evangelical Christians, Orthodox Jews and conservative Catholics, as well as the local Republican congressman, Geoff Davis (news, bio, voting record), and his family, who have toured the site.
While the debate between creationists and mainstream scientists has bubbled up periodically in U.S. schools since before the Scopes "monkey trial" in nearby Tennessee 80 years ago, courts have repeatedly ruled that teaching religious theory in public schools is unconstitutional.
Ham, an Australian who moved to America 20 years ago, believes creationists could have presented a better case at the Scopes trail if they'd been better educated -- but he's not among those pushing for creation to be taught in school.
Rather than force skeptical teachers to debate creation, Ham wants kids to come to his museum, where impassioned experts can make their case that apparently ancient fossils and the Grand Canyon were created just a few thousand years ago in a great flood.
"It's not hitting them over the head with a Bible, it's just teaching that we can defend what it says," he said.
Ham, who also runs a Christian broadcasting and publishing venture, said the museum's Hollywood-quality exhibits set the project apart from the many quirky Creation museums sprinkled across America.
The museum's team of Christian designers include theme park art director Patrick Marsh, who designed the "Jaws" and "King Kong" attractions at Universal Studios in Florida, as well as dozens of young artists whose conviction drives their work.
"I think it shows (nonbelievers) the other side of things," said Carolyn Manto, 27, pausing in her work painting Ice Age figures for a display about caves in France.
"I don't think it's going to be forcing any viewpoint on them, but challenging them to think critically about their evolutionary views," said Manto, who studied classical sculpture before joining the museum.
Still, Looy is upfront about the museum's mission: to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with nonbelievers.
"I think a lot of people are going to come out of curiosity ... and we're going to present the Gospel. This is going to be an evangelistic center," Looy said. A chaplain has been hired for museum-goers in need of spiritual guidance.
The museum's rural location near the border of Kentucky, Ohio and Indiana places it well within America's mostly conservative and Christian heartland. But the setting has another strategic purpose: two-thirds of Americans are within a day's drive of the site, and Cincinnati's international airport is minutes away.
The project has not been without opposition. Zoning battles with environmentalists and groups opposed to the museum's message have delayed construction and the museum's opening day has been delayed repeatedly.
The museum has hired extra security and explosives-sniffing dogs to counter anonymous threats of damage to the building. "We've had some opposition," Looy said.
I didn't make the claim.
Many people hear see what we see. But we tend to get drowned out by voices whose volume is inversely proportional to content.
Paleontology was a boyhood interest - this idea of humans and dinosaurs co-existing is ridiculous.

i don't care- my previous post stands- The info is there- putting your hands over your eyes won't change that fact
evolution? The biologically impossible theory and God can coexist? You'd have to prove evolution overcame impossible biological hurdles in order for that to be fact. The scientific evidences show more that God and His word are consistent and true- not that evolution happened and God's directive. It is impossible for mutations to create NEW cell information- ALL mutations do is alter celular information that is ALREADY present- evolution demands NEW information from outside the source (outside the species- from another species) in order to be viable- lateral gene transference however has it's own set of impossible problems- but beyond even htose impossiblities, amino acids couldn't make the impossible leap to protiens in order for evolution to even get a head start were it even remotely possible- Not to mention that all experiments on 'primordial soups' with lightening strikes in CAREFULLY controlled envirnments that were set up to reproduce what would have been necessary for the creation of life from non life (ie life from chemicals) have proven that the WRONG type of amino acids were created and did NOT live long enough anyways.- they were left hand amino acids- precisely the wrong type needed for life.
These aren't just some inconsequential hurdles- these are MAJOR impossibilities that evos' have not been able to explain or even suggest an explaination. No- it takes a HUGE amount of FAITH in order to bleeive the impossible was possible.
I do believe God and evolution can co-exist. I'm sorry you are not open to that possibility. However, arguing with people like yourself rarely achieves anything - so therefore, I conclude this discussion.
But they do get wound up rather quickly ;-)
lol gosh whaT a surprise- discount the evidences because they carry the word God in them- Tracts? No sir- facts- conclude if you like- didn';t expect any less.
Think about it. I'm done talking to you; don't post to me again, thanks.
As predicted- people scream for facts and links- when provided- they throw their hands over their ears and say 'nuh uh'
Want to know why dating methods aren't reliable? http://www.creationontheweb.com/content/view/3059
Want ot ignore it because it's on a Christian website despite hte fact that SCIENCE proves the facts listed? Fine-
ah the classic bow out- and you're right- God did state that we're not to argue facts when confronted with lies- Being spiteful? I'm sorry- you're right- calling those sites that present scientific facts as 'gospel tracts' isn't being spiteful- Don't dish it out of you don't like the return serve.
The scary thing is they'd have argued just as hard for the geocentric universe if they'd been born a few centuries earlier.
Here's how your sources distort:
" When the isotope concentrations are adjusted for such conversions, the ages calculated are reduced from some 600 Ma to recent."
They have deleted the number "70 million years" and replaced it with "recent"!
If your sources believe recent is 70 million years ago, then you lose the YEC argument.
BTW, your "Cook" was a creationist.
Your link leads to a page of additional links. Rather than try to wade through them all I looked at the first link (which I have examined before).
The article deals with radiometric dating, and the section on radiocarbon dating (which is what we have been discussing) concludes with:
In summary, the carbon-14 method, when corrected for the effects of the flood, can give useful results, but needs to be applied carefully.Want ot ignore it because it's on a Christian website despite hte fact that SCIENCE proves the facts listed? Fine-
Anyone who attempts to calibrate a scientific method by reference to a mythical flood is not doing science. They are doing apologetics (defense of religion).
Is there any better science on any of the other links? So far, your links are just a waste of our time.
--The scary thing is they'd have argued just as hard for the geocentric universe if they'd been born a few centuries earlier.--
Not that bad. They lost.
--Is there any better science on any of the other links?--
No. See my 264.
Typical creationist, ask him to back up a silly claim and you get nothing but dodging.
---SCIENCE proves the facts listed?---
One of their scientists they use to support their position.
Dr Andrew Snelling ... now works full-time with the Creation Science Foundation
For some reason I'm reminded of the scene in Monty Python's Holy Grail where they use "logic" to determine if someone is a witch.
BEDEVERE: Exactly. So, logically...
VILLAGER #1: If... she... weighs... the same as a duck,...she's made of wood.
BEDEVERE: And therefore?
VILLAGER #2: A witch!
Aw crap. A perfectly good thread turned over to the EVO vs. Creationist people. Thats enought for me....
and this disproves that he presented scientific facts how now?
No sir that wasn't the only point being made on that site- and attempting to disprove every point made based on ONE point being discussed is disingenuous and amounts to dismmissing everything simply because somehwere in the article the name God or flood or some similiar point is mentioned- there ar lots of FACTS in those articles that do NOT rely on the mention of that one point about hte flood- and you're attemptiong to misrepresent the whole by picking and choosing something you perceive as innacurate- The site also goes on the explain WHY adjustments could JUST AS validly be used to account for the anomilies that throw off the radio carbon dating-
the trueorigin site also goes into great detail the facts showing why different dating methods are wrong and can't be trusted and why those asserting old age MUST make assumptons based on error in order to come up with hteir findings-
Sure they'rew a waste of your time because you autom atically dismiss somethign hwen they make a point like a flood could very well have accouinted for for what they are findijng- incase you missed it- the article ALSO said the flood model has to be very carefully applied-
Take a look at that trueorigin site- but the creationontheweb site also has plenty of scientific fact for you to noodle over if you can get around the fact that they might mention God now and again
and these are by no means the only sites- there are sites that are quite technical and featured in peer reviewed scientific journals- but alas, they too might mention God & so the 'cast out anyone who does so' crowd will automatically discount any of the evidences
UpallNight- Sure- yep- every other point in that article is automatically thrown out- Facts swept under the rug- you're right- argument lost-
Many things that are called science are not science.
Science does not require faith because it is based on facts and theory.
This is true of real science. So there must be a "scientific" field of origins. This is where we step deep into faith. We can never verify the past but we must believe a stack of things about the past to accept any belief about our origin.
When people accept these assumptions about an unprovable past, no matter which ones they accept, the result is to form religion. We may think we see light coming from a source that is 10 billion light years away, and we may believe that the only way for that light to have gotten here is for it to have traveled the whole distance at a fixed speed, but we can never know that to be true.
"and this disproves that he presented scientific facts how now?"
Not by itself, but I have shown other 'distortions' (lies) and you have not addressed those. This is just an example that your 'scientific sources' are paid to generate pre-determined' facts.
look- stop with the petty little accusations- IF you have an argument for or against what is being discussed- then present it- otherwise all you're doing is getting your little anti-Christian jabs in- feel good does it? Yeah? well it's still petty and childish- stay on topic- do some research- counter what I am stating with facts if you can rather than indulging in the irresistable temptation of bakcbiting and bickering- you can do it- I have faith
--UpallNight- Sure- yep- every other point in that article is automatically thrown out- Facts swept under the rug- you're right- argument lost--
It would take forever to address each 'fact' on your link. I did, however, show how they deliberately lied to make results that showed something was 70 million years old to match the YEC hypothesis. Address that lie and we will go on to another.
Gee- ya mean they get paid for a job? By golly- ya gots a point there- argument over- Cripes- Paid or not- facts are STILL facts- don't pull the bull crap tactic of trying to discredit facts by avoiding the facts and pointing out someones affiliation- IF you have counter facts to the facts presented- spell it out- then we can have a serious conversation- otherwise- all you're doing is sniping from the outside- taking pot shots at those who bring facts to the table.
'recent is a 'lie'? Gosh- yup- right full of lies that site- if this is your only 'proof' then you're really grasping at straws when presented with numerous facts.
Takin a nap- will be up later
You have without a doubt proven the substance of the first sentence of my post.
I have just done so. I do not find their argument concerning the inaccuracy of carbon 14 dating convincing.
All of their examples have long since been rebutted. In fact, its the same material we see on many of the creationist websites, which is accepted as truth due to a mix of wishful thinking, lack of scientific knowledge concerning the subject, and agreement with a priori religious beliefs.
and by the way- care to counter the fact that evolution is a biological impossibility? Or would you rather simply discount it all because the evidences are presented on Christian sites for the most part? (Depsite the fact that they do appear in peer reviewed journals as well)
sur3 they've been rebutted- anyone can take a theory that measured by incidents can't be observed and rebutt anything- why? simply because the knowns are not infact known- You failed to mention they have not been succesfully rebutted-
I am a Catholic who believes in elements of Theistic Evolution as well as Old-Earth creationism. Don't flame me for that, at least not here and now.
In Genesis 1:6-7, it says:
And God said, "Let there be a dome in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters." So God made the dome and separated the waters that were under the dome from the waters that were above the dome. And it was so.
We know that this is not a literal "dome" or we would have crashed through it when we launched satellites and space shuttles. It's metaphorical. Therefore, if the dome isn't literal, how would we know the "days" as mentioned in Genesis are literal? Care to explain your thoughts on that?
your 'science' relies as heavily on specualtion as does creation science- yet- somehow, because your 'science' leaves God out of the equasion- you think it's more 'fact'? sorry- but you NEED a heapiong amount of faith to trust in something that delves into unknowns- for instance the coinstants or -non constants- that can not be determined. dating steps outside the element of science and goes straight to the beleif system- science studies knowns and observables- If you are going to discount creation science, then you also have to discount secular science as beingh a 'priori of dogma' as well-
and just one more point- it is untrue that the matter has been ev4n close to being settled and succesfully rebutted- if that were true- the matter would be settled once and for all in the peer reviews and that is FAR from the truth- You can assert that if you like- but it's not true.
At this point, I'm going to let my posts, particularly post #237 stand until you can come up with better arguments.
-- facts are STILL facts- don't pull the bull crap tactic of trying to discredit facts by avoiding the facts and pointing out someones affiliation- --
I first pointed out a 'fact' but you chose to (even after a second request) to ignore my post.
--'recent is a 'lie'? Gosh- yup- right full of lies that site- if this is your only 'proof' then you're really grasping at straws when presented with numerous facts. --
I doubt they would have posted those several paragraphs only to conclude that it was 70 million years old. Better to say "recent" and let the duped reader believe it was less than 6000 years old. Which is what you believed, right?
--the fact that evolution is a biological impossibility?--
I have never seen that fact.
Creationism puts forth a dogmatic view that a much edited collection of books details to modern man exact history and science. I thought that Christ brought forth the new era with a new testament that swept aside the old books. If you adhere to the old books then you do not fully accept that Christ brought about a new era that did not base its faith and belief on strict adherance to the old testament.
Are there parts of the old testament that have elements of truth historically? Sure there are. There was a great flood for instance, but that along with many other events in the OT are also written in the sacred books of other religions and have differences which would be expected in stories brought down through thousands of years and thousands of authors. The OT was written and rewritten for peoples who were uneducated and very much limited to knowledge of their own piece of the world and for many their "world" was limited to maybe a 100 square miles.
I know about the various ideas of the origins of man and the earth and the universe. You believe what you like, but don't imply that those who may disagree with you are leftists, ignorant or uninformed, once again, that is the self-important view of that cult out there. I did not say that you were a terrorist, just that your statement carried the same smug self-centered view of others beliefs that muslims do.
How can one trust a 'scientist' that takes this pledge and is paid for his 'research'.
"The Bible is the written, word of God, and because we believe it to be inspired thruout [sic] all of its assertions are historically and scientifically true in all of the original autographs. To the student of nature, this means that the account of origins in Genesis is a factual presentation of historical truth."
When a theory can be shown to carry enough weight of evidence to make it fact then it becomes a scientific fact. Coprenicus had a theory that the earth and planets revolved around the sun and the church branded him a heretic. With the advances in astronomy, math and physics it was shown that he was right and the theory became fact. There are other theories that have been disproved, not by dogmatic biblical means but by physical proof. The theory of evolution has neither been fully proved nor disproved and remains a theory. It is a theory based on a large number of physical proofs, not faith. If you choose not to believe the physical evidence then that is up to you. If your faith sustains you in respect to evolution then that is wonderful for you. My faith separates Christ and God and their message from the OT which was swept aside by the word of Christ and does not rely on a testament most recently rewritten by an English King for political ends. The universe, evolution are all part of God's plan and he gave us the intelligence and free will to learn how to discern his hand in the patterns of the universe and man.
And the turkey looks good too.
Pretty much. Although the rest of the time he is probably busy with the other universes he is creating.....

We're developing and maintaining a couple of systems, which need to export reports in Excel format to the end user. The reports are gathered from a MySQL database with some trivial processing and usually result in ~40000 rows of data with 10-15 columns, we're expecting the amount of data to grow steadily.
At the moment we're using PHPExcel for the Excel generation, but it's not working for us anymore. After we go above 5000 rows, the memory consumption and loading times become untolerable, and can't be solved by indefinitely increasing PHP's maximum limits for memory usage and script execution times. Processing of the data is as lean as possible, and the entire problem is with PHPExcel being a memory hog. CSV generation would be lighter, but unfortunately we're required to export Excel (and Excel alone) from our services due to user demands. This is due to formatting requirements etc., so CSV isn't an option.
Any ideas/recommendations for a third party application/module/service/what ever for generating large excels? Doesn't matter if it's a commercial licence, as long as it fits our needs, can be integrated to existing PHP applications and does its job. Our services are generally running on linux/php/mysql and we can do just about whatever we need to do with the servers.

Back-Of-The-Refrigerator Soup
The great beauty of the slow cooker is its ability to turn even the vaguest scraps into delicious food. Consider this "recipe" a guide to making a hot, healthy meal from items that might otherwise have gone to waste. For the grain, consider using freekeh, roasted green wheat popular in the Middle East. The recipe is intended for a 5-quart or larger slow cooker.
Makes 4 to 6 servings
3 pounds chicken, turkey or ham bones, preferably with a bit of meat on them
1 onion, peeled and quartered
2 celery stalks, roughly chopped
2 large carrots, washed and trimmed, but not peeled
2 large sprigs rosemary
Parsley ends if you have them
2 tablespoons salt
8 cups water
1 cup brown rice or other grain
3 cups shredded Brussels sprouts, chopped green beans and chopped snap peas, or any other vegetables on hand
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Place the bones, onion, celery, carrots, rosemary, parsley, salt and water into the slow cooker. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 4 to 5 hours.
Strain the stock into a pot, pressing down on the solids. Discard solids.
Taste the broth. If it tastes weak, simmer, uncovered until reduced by about a third. Add the grain, cover the pot, and simmer until the grain is almost cooked, about 45 minutes. Add the vegetables, and salt and pepper to taste. Replace the cover and simmer gently for 15 to 20 minutes, until vegetables are cooked, but not mushy.
Serve with good, crusty bread and a salad.

DETROIT -- Ron Wilson's merry band of castoffs and youngsters figure to play spoiler come March. Why not start on opening night?
The rebuilding/remodeled/patchwork Toronto Maple Leafs dampened a banner-raising night for the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday, skating off with a well-deserved 3-2 victory that made plenty of people smile in the visitor's dressing room at Joe Louis Arena.
"This is one of the more satisfying wins I've ever had," said Wilson, winning in his debut as Leafs coach. "I've had some really great teams come into Detroit and you're hanging on for dear life, and if you can win a game in a shootout, you consider yourself lucky."
The Leafs, a near-unanimous pick by pundits across the hockey universe to miss the playoffs this season, are going to relish that "us-versus-the-world" mentality, fueled at every turn by a veteran coach who has a track record of maximizing talent-challenged rosters (see Anaheim and Washington in previous coaching stops).
And in a market like Toronto, where passionate but often gullible fans get excited at the smallest of victories, Thursday night will no doubt get Leaf Nation excited for the moment.
"Oh, I'm sure there's a lot of people with crayons right now writing down a parade route," Wilson said. "But it's one game, and it's part of the process. Tonight, we were fortunate enough to not make many mistakes, and our attention to detail was pretty good.
I'm really proud of the group; they paid attention. We've really only had eight practices, and to have the game figured out somewhat tells you a lot about our players.
"They bought in, and we've had a lot of fun. They're having a great time in there right now, and they should -- they beat the Stanley Cup champions. It's a tremendous accomplishment, and it can only do good things for our confidence, I hope."
Consider the talent gap on the ice Thursday night. The Wings' top two lines had Pavel Datsyuk centering Marian Hossa and Tomas Holmstrom, and Henrik Zetterberg with Johan Franzen and Jiri Hudler. The Leafs countered with Nik Antropov between Alexei Ponikarovsky and Jason Blake, as well as Mikhail Grabovski between Jiri Tlusty and Nikolai Kulemin. Mercy.
Detroit's third line, Valtteri Filppula centering Mikael Samuelsson and Daniel Cleary, could probably pass as the top line in Toronto.
"But that team plays hard; they really do," Wings coach Mike Babcock said of the visitors.
You're going to hear that a lot this season. When a team doesn't have a lot of talent but manages to win some games, you have to come up with other adjectives. And in this case, it's going to be accurate. When this edition of the Maple Leafs has some bout of success this year, it's because they're going to absolutely outwork the opposition in every facet of the game.
And they're going to need contributions from all over the place. They need a number of different players having 15- to 20-goal seasons. On this night, Kulemin scored the winner on a nifty breakaway move. The kid's got hands. Checker Dominic Moore scored the second goal for the Leafs on a gritty effort and rebound chance. Another player on this team getting a chance to be a regular NHLer. He was pumped after his goal.
"I was pretty excited; it was an important goal," Moore said. "We're an excited team. We're a young team and you'll probably see a lot of those types of celebrations this year."
Said Wilson: "For us tonight, it was kind of a special night. I'm really proud of everybody on the team. They were outstanding."
No Mats Sundin, no Bryan McCabe, no Darcy Tucker. But a bunch of guys hoping to prove they belong, not to mention make a bunch of pundits eat their words.
"We're not worried about any of that, whether the critics are positive or negative," Moore said. "Tonight was an incredible challenge against the best team in hockey. We weren't worried about the score. We just wanted to work hard, play well and see what happens. We came out with a win, but it's not a big deal. It's just a nice start."
Can they surprise us and make the playoffs? Unlikely. But rest assured, Wilson will get every ounce of production from this squad. They'll be a better team after the midway mark of the season because he will have fully hammered home how he wants this team to play. The question is whether they'll be too far behind at that point for it to matter.
"They have a better team than last year," Wings goalie Chris Osgood said. "Some people think just because you switched older players out in Toronto, your team is going to be worse. It's not the case. They have some good young players on their team. They really forced the issue on us and forechecked well. They held us in our end quite a bit. And that's off determination and how fired up they were to play us. We're going to have a lot of games like that this year, where teams get excited and fired up to play us. So we have to be ready. That's the way it's going to be."
No reason to worry in Hockeytown. They'll shake off the rust. But it's interesting to note the Anaheim Ducks also dropped their opener last season after winning the Cup, a 4-1 stinker to the lowly Los Angeles Kings in London. All of which just continues to feed this Cup hangover myth (or is fact?) that has plagued teams in recent years.
"Being the defending Stanley Cup champs, teams are going to be ready to play us," Red Wings captain Nicklas Lidstrom said. "That's a challenge in itself for our team. We know it's not going to be easy for us. We know it's going to be a tough, long year. We have to be prepared for that, too.
"All the good things that happened last season, we can put behind us now and be ready to play some hockey again."

Carmen Trutanich Clowned in Poster as Anti-Street Art 'Mister Meaner'
Carmen Trutanich and the street art community aren't exactly BFFs.
The L.A. city attorney has targeted out-of-compliance murals, famous outdoor art-makers and graffiti taggers, sometimes with the zeal of a capital murder prosecutor.
One auteur said last year that Trutanich's campaign against street art and the people who make it was "like beating a dead horse." Well, that horse has been resurrected in the form of an anti-Trutanich poster:
This poster and scaled-down stickers of it were sent out to the media anonymously this week:
The work portrays City Hall's top justice official as a glib man with handcuffs on the brain. If you ask us, it's clearly meant to look like the work of legendary L.A. artist Robbie Conal (see the real thing below):

TicketsMon., Aug. 15, 7:05pm
However, the Trutanich piece doesn't have melted-wax decay and brutality of a real Conal, in our opinion.
The Weekly received a large poster, ideal for illicit posting and "sniping," and several small stickers of the image. It's not clear if the thing is going up on walls near you, thus provoking its very subject.
Interestingly, the term "mister meaner" was in the news recently.
The poster's provocation, meanwhile, will only give the city attorney greater recognition in L.A. He could probably use it, as he lost his recent bid to become the L.A. County district attorney.
Maybe this could be the image for his next tough-on-crime campaign.

Some Advice for 'Rent' From a Friend
By ANTHONY TOMMASINI
Published: July 28, 2002
THE Nederlander Theater on West 41st Street, where Jonathan Larson's ''Rent'' has been playing for more than six years, is just two blocks south of the New York Times building. So I pass by often. Having interviewed Larson in the last hours of his life, I've gotten pleasure, and a measure of comfort, from knowing that his show is still going strong in New York and around the world.
I had not seen ''Rent'' for at least two years when I decided recently to check it out again. It saddens me to report that long-run-itis is afflicting ''Rent.'' The performance was not stale, but the opposite: pumped up with a rockish energy that seemed forced and generic, and blaringly loud. The cast looked great and was brimming with talent. But the young performers, it appeared, had been encouraged to play the show for raw power.
Does no one involved still trust in the subtlety of Larson's characterizations, the textured layers of his music and the impish and poignant lyrics? So much of the show's impact comes from the specificity in Larson's words and lyrics. But if this performance was indicative, specificity has been replaced by sonic wattage. The projected attitude reminds me of my college-dorm days when friends, excited by Blue Oyster Cult or whatever heavy metal band, would put on albums to win me over: if I remained unimpressed, they always said, ''It's not loud enough, let me crank up the volume, you'll see.'' Have the producers decided that the target audience at this point consists of rock-addled adolescents who, intent on experiencing ''Rent'' only as a cultural rite of passage, could care less about musical theater?
I can't help feeling a little proprietary
about ''Rent,'' because of the inadvertent role I played at the end of Larson's life. On Jan. 24, 1996, curious about this new rock musical that promised to be ''La Bohème'' transplanted to the East Village in the 1990's, I attended a dress rehearsal at New York Theater Workshop. There, after a string of 20 preview performances, ''Rent'' was to begin a short run. That rehearsal was pretty ragged, with rampant technical glitches, especially in the sound system. Still, I was impressed by Larson's music and lyrics, affected by the humane and unflinching honesty of his vision, and won over by the youthful exuberance of the appealing cast.
Around 11 p.m., Larson, with his big sad eyes and mop of curly hair, sat for an interview with me in the theater's tiny ticket booth, the only semi-quiet place in which to hide out from the post-rehearsal chaos. He talked about his background, how he approached songwriting, the friends with AIDS who had inspired the work, and his keen desire to bring the American musical to the MTV generation. After we shook hands in the lobby, he went inside to say so long to some lingering members of the company, then walked home to his ramshackle apartment in the West Village. It was there he collapsed and died, at 35, of an aortic aneurysm.
Later on, as ''Rent'' became a phenomenon, Larson's friends told me that Jonathan used to grab anybody who would listen and say: ''You watch, I'm going to get my Times interview. I'm going to win the Tony Award.'' It has always meant a lot to me that on that night, he knew that at least one of his predictions was coming true. ''Rent'' went on to win not only a handful of Tony Awards but the Pulitzer Prize for drama.
With ''Rent'' Jonathan Larson was trying to do something important but difficult: reconcile the tradition of American musical theater, which is all about the artful mingling of words and music, with the tradition of American rock, which feeds on pulsating riffs and visceral power. Larson talked about this at length on that night.
''I feel -- and this is, like, my mantra -- that the American musical has always been about pop music,'' he said. ''Gershwin and Porter and Rodgers were writing the pop music of their day. What happened in the 60's was that people who could have been writing for the theater -- Lennon and McCartney, for instance -- realized they didn't have to go down that road. They could start a band, write songs. That's when I feel that popular music and theater music divided.'' Many people agree, though some date the diverging of pop and Broadway to the 50's.
Larson tried to bridge that gulf. He turned ''La Bohème'' into a gritty story about a love affair between a punk rock singer and an S & M club dancer, both H.I.V.-infected, he a recovering heroin addict, she an active user, a story that invited an electrified, pop-ish score. He consciously used different styles of contemporary rock to flesh out different characters. Angel, the cross-dressing street musician, sings in ''a very straightforward disco sound,'' Larson told me. Tom Collins, the graduate teaching assistant and radical, is ''a sort of jazzy, Tom Waitsy kind of guy.'' Roger and Mimi, the central couple, ''are more grunge,'' Larson said.
Still, the songs are indebted to the words-and-music tradition of the musical. The suppleness of the melodic lines, the rich harmonic language and the intricate choral writing all testify to Larson's sophistication as a composer. The trick in performing ''Rent'' is to find a balance between making those subtle details clear and summoning the power of rock. During the interview, Larson assured me that by opening night he and his team would bring clarity to the score.

This invention relates to a space switch which allows one or more inputs to be directed to one or more outputs to enable electronic devices to be coupled together.
As used herein, a space switch is a device which is intended to direct one of a plurality of inputs to any one of a plurality of outputs.
A particular application of the invention may be to provide data from one computer to one or more other computers. Conventionally, this is done by means of a data bus which receives the data together with an appropriate address to assign it to the intended computer or computers. The address enables the appropriate computer or computers to receive the data from the data bus for processing.
The conventional system has a limitation on the amount of information which can be passed due to the band width of the data bus and it is therefore desirable to provide a device which can overcome this limitation.
The invention may be said to reside in a space switch comprising an array of cells which are interconnected with one another, each cell having transmission means for allowing a signal to pass from an input into the cell to an output from the cell, actuating means for selectively actuating the transmission means to enable a signal to pass from the input to the output, selecting means for selecting one or more of said cells and for causing said actuating means to actuate said transmission means to enable a signal to pass from the input to the output such that said selecting means can select an appropriate cell or cells to cause said actuating means to actuate the transmission means so that any one input to said array of cells can be directed to any one of said cells and outputted to any one of said outputs.
The present invention thereby enables a large number of inputs to be applied to any one or more respective outputs with the effective band width of the switching matrix being limited only by the number of cells in the array.
Preferably the transmission means comprises a transmission gate and the actuating means comprises a latch which is coupled to the transmission gate for actuating the transmission gate to cause a signal to pass from the input to the output.
Preferably the selecting means comprises a column selector and a row selector which are coupled to the array of cells, said array of cells being grouped in rows and columns such that outputs from the row and column selectors can select one or more cells to be actuated.
A preferred embodiment of the invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a view of a switching matrix embodying the invention;
FIG. 2 is a view of a cell of the switching matrix of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a view of an address register used in the embodiment of FIG. 1;
FIG. 4a and FIG. 4b constitute a view of a column decoder used in the embodiment of FIG. 1;
FIG. 5 is a view of a control signal generator used in the embodiment of FIG. 1;
FIG. 6 is a view of part of the cell array of FIG. 1.
FIG. 7 is a diagram of part of an array used in the embodiment of FIG. 1;
FIG. 8 is a diagram of a test generator;
FIG. 9 is a diagram of a bias generator;
FIG. 10 is a diagram of a status combiner; and
FIG. 11 is a simplified diagram of the array used in the embodiment of FIG. 1.
With reference to FIG. 1 a space switch is shown which comprises a cell array 10, a column decoder 12, a row decoder 14, an address register 16, an input buffer 18, a control signal generator 20, a test generator 22 and status combiner 24.
The cell array 10 is an array of 32�32 circuits which define cross points and which enable an input on any one of the input lines 19 to be transferred to any one or more output lines 21 from the array 10. A simplified view of the array is shown in FIG. 6.
One of the circuits or cross points is shown in FIG. 2 and comprises a transmission gate 11 which is coupled to a latch 13 by lines 15 and 17. An input signal is directed to the gate 11 on line 19 and is outputted from the gate 11 on line 21. The latch 13 receives status data of the appropriate polarity on line 23 and write, row and column data is supplied to a gate 25 on lines 27, 29 and 31 respectively. A reset signal is applied to the latch 13 on line 33. When a reset signal is applied on line 33 the latch creates outputs on lines 15 and 17 which deactivates the transmission gate 11 and prevents a signal on line 19 from passing through the gate 11 to line 21.
When it is desired to enable the transmission gate 11 to transmit the signal on line 19 to line 21, a signal is applied to the row and column lines 29 and 31 to select the appropriate cross point in the array 10 and a write signal is applied to line 27 together with status data of desired polarity which appears on line 23. The write and status data together with the row and column data causes the polarity of the signal on line 23 to be outputted on line 17 and the inverse of that signal to be outputted on line 15. That is, if the signal on line 23 is high the output on line 17 is high and the output on line 15 is low. This enables the transmission gate to transmit the signal on line 19 to line 21. A read signal is received on line 41 and row and column data is also received on line 43 and line 45. These three lines form three of four inputs to a circuit 49 which comprises a series of transistors. The other input is applied on line 51 which is coupled to line 17 so that the output on line 17 is applied to the circuit 49. The outputs from the circuit 49 are enable signal on line 53 and a status line signal on line 55.
The row and column signals which are inputted on lines 29 and 31 are generated by the inputs 60 into buffer 18. These inputs may be keyed in on a keyboard but are preferably generated by an appropriate computer. The input 60 which can comprise serial input clock pulses or a parallel input are transmitted to register 16 on lines 62. The register 16 which is best shown in FIG. 3 receives the inputs on lines 62. The input signal is clocked into registers 63 to 79 by clock pulses generated on lines 81 and an address signal generated on line 83. The registers 63 to 79 are each connected to a multiplexer 85. The output from the registers 63 and the multiplexers 85 is therefore a binary signal which appears on output lines 87 and 89. The signal on line 89 is the inverse of the signal on 87. The signals on lines 87 and 89 are received by column generator 12. It should be noted that the row generator 14 is identical to the column generator 12 and therefore only the column generator is shown in the drawings. The signal on lines 87 represents a number which has ten bits and that signal is transmitted to a series of NAND gates 103 so that one of the lines 29 and 31 from the column and row generators 12 and 14 are enabled.
Apart from receiving the signal on lines 87 to enable one of the lines 29 and 31 a high input can be received on line 107 so that all of the lines 29 and 31 are enabled.
An appropriate output on one or more of the row and column lines 29 and 31 will enable the corresponding chip or cross point in the array matrix 10 to be actuated to enable the transmission gate 11 in that circuit to transmit the signal on line 19 to line 21 when the appropriate status and write lines 23 and 27 are enabled.
The status generator 24 shown in FIG. 1 combines all of the status lines 55 (see FIG. 2) into a single line 111 and inputs them to the control signal generator 20. All of the enable lines 53 are inputted to test generator 22 and the generator 22 is connected to the status generator 24 by bias line 113. The generator 22 also includes a test pin 117 for input of a test signal to be more fully described hereinafter. The generator 22 enables any one of 32 enable signals to appear on enable lines to enable the transmission gates 11.
The control signal generator 20 controls the data outputs which are applied to line 23 (FIG. 2) as well as the write, reset and read signals which appear on lines 27, 33 and 41.
The control signal generator 20 is more clearly shown in FIG. 5. In FIG. 5, read-not-write signals are applied on line 131 from buffer 18 and chips select and output enable signals are applied on lines 133 and 135 from the control circuit 20. These signals pass through gates 132, 134, 136 and 138 and produce read and write signals on lines 27 and 41. The output of gate 138 together with the input on status line 111 is applied to gate 140 and the output of this is received on status line 137. Latch data on line 139 and signals on multi-row select and multi-column select lines 141 and 143 are applied to gate 142 and an output of the gate is applied to line 23 through gate 144. If either or both the lines 141 and 143 are high this line 23 clears the rows and columns upon application of a write signal. The lines 141 and 143 allow an entire row and column in array 10 to be selected instead of a single cell in the row and column. A read when lines 141 and 143 are active will allow all cross points to be tested to see if any are set.
A clear signal on line 145 will clear all cross points shown in FIG. 2 by the reset line 33.
FIG. 6 illustrates how the circuits in array 10 are coupled together to enable an input on one of the lines 19 which will to be applied to any one or more of the output lines 21. For simplicity all of the components of the chip are not shown in FIG. 6 and only the gate 11, latch 13, gates 25 and circuits 49 are represented. The circuits 49 are connected to suitable bias sources 200 which apply a pull-up signal to the circuits 49 and it will be noted that the input 19 is coupled to two gates 11 by lines 19a and 19b. A further input 19 is connected to another two gates 11 via lines 19c and 19d. If it is desired for signal no. 1 to be applied to output no. 1 then the row and column decoders 12 and 14 apply appropriate signals to enable lines 29 and 31 to cause the gate 11' to open to pass the signal from line 19 to line 21 associated with the output labelled 1. If it is desired for the signal 1 to be received at output no. 2 then the row and column decoders apply appropriate signals to the lines 29 and 31 associated with the gate 11" and cause that gate to enable the signal to pass on line 19b through to line 21 associated with output 2. If it is desired for a signal no. 2 to be received by output no. 1 the row and column encoder enable the row and column lines associated with gate 11'" to enable that gate to pass the signal on line 19d through gate 11'" to line 21 associated with the output labeled 1. It should be noted that FIG. 6 merely shows how two inputs are coupled by means of the circuits shown in FIG. 2 and the pattern illustrated in FIG. 6 is continued throughout all 32�32 circuits to couple the circuits together to enable any one of the inputs on line 19 to be coupled to any one of the outputs 21 by appropriate selection of a cross point defined by one of the circuits shown in FIG. 2 which is selected by the appropriate output from the row and column decoders 12 and 14.
The circuits 49 are shown in FIG. 7 and comprise a plurality of transistors which receive the signals on lines 43, 51, 45 and 41 which are respectively row select information on line 43, cross point status information on line 51, column select information on line 45 and read information on line 41. Each of the circuits 49 outputs the status signal on line 55 and an enable signal on line 53 to enable the output 59 associated with one of the outputs 1 and 2.
FIG. 8 shows a detailed view of the test generator 22. The test generator 22 includes the test pin 117 as well as bias input line 119 from the status generator 34. The bias line 119 is coupled to a plurality of drivers 171 which are constant current sources and which supply bias current from the bias source in the status generator 24. The test pin 117 is coupled to a plurality of drivers 173 which are adapted to enable all of the outputs from the circuits in array 10. The purpose of the test generator 22 is to test the array 10 to ensure that it is functioning properly. In particular, it is to test whether any of the transmission gates 11 are leaking. The test pin 117 drives all of the enable lines 175 to pull lines 53 low. If an output on line 21 from any of the cells fluctuates this provides an indication that the transmission gate is leaking.
FIG. 10 shows the status generator 24 which receives the status lines 55 shown in FIG. 1. The lines 55 are coupled to a series of buffers 177 and output from the series of buffers are coupled together to form status output line 111.
The bias generator 200 which is shown in FIG. 9 is coupled to constant current pull-up drivers 179 which are in turn coupled with the buffers 177. The bias generator 200 is also coupled to a constant current pull-up driver 131 which is directly coupled to the status output line 111. It should be noted that although a plurality of bias generators are shown in FIG. 6 for the purpose of illustration, a single bias generator 200 is utilized in the preferred embodiment of this invention. The bias generator is coupled to the bias output line 119 as shown which in turn is coupled to the output lines 175 in the test generator 22.
The bias generator 200 is shown in FIG. 9 and comprises a transistor 203 which is connected between voltage sources VDD and VSS which via impedances 205. The output from the bias generator 200 also appears on line 119 which is applied to the test generator 22. The bias generator 200 can be varied by an external impedance 207 to allow the response time of the circuits in the array 10 to change. A low current bias output appears on the output line 129 which is applied to the buffers 177 and drivers 179.
Since modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention may readily be effected by persons skilled within the art, it is to understood that this invention is not limited to the particular embodiment described by way of example hereinabove.

HELSINKI, Finland -- The United States won its first world
junior hockey title Monday, beating Canada 4-3 after Canadian
goalie Marc-Andre Fleury's failed clearing pass ended up in his own
Fleury's pass bounced off teammate Braydon Coburn and into the
Canadian goal with 5:12 left, capping a three-goal rally by the
Americans. Patrick O'Sullivan was credited with the winning goal.
"This rates right up there with the Miracle On Ice," said
tournament MVP Zach Parise, referring to the 1980 Winter Olympics
when the Americans won the gold medal.
The freak goal capped a three-goal, third-period rally against
the 19-year-old Fleury, who was the MVP of the 2003 tournament and
the first overall pick in the NHL draft by the Pittsburgh Penguins.
"You can say there were a couple of lucky goals, but good
things happen when you work hard. You make your own luck," United
States coach Mike Eaves said.
Canada led 3-1 on two goals from Nigel Dawes and one from
Anthony Stewart. But the Americans scored twice in four minutes
early in the third period on goals by O'Sullivan and Ryan Kesler.
Then came Fleury's blunder, with O'Sullivan getting credit for his
second goal of the game.
Canada also lost in the final last year, falling to Russia.
The United States, 7-0 in the tournament, dominated play early
getting a goal by Dan Fritsche but Canada rallied in the second
period with two goals by Dawes. Stewart had two assists before
beating United States goalie Alvaro Montoya for the 3-1 lead.
Finland won the bronze medal, defeating the Czech Republic 2-1.
